todo
reprioritize beta testing (new user exp)
i want the player to feel clever weighing options to balance risk and reward as they live with their choices(tail)
meaning they should only fail due to their own choices/shortsightedness
*breaking out of the box is sort of like thinking out of the box which give them the feeling of being clever
pitch
anime slasher with juicy dofs
target audience/experience
~13-18-year-olds who enjoy competitive, skill-based, solo gaming
sprinkle in some pop culture relevant to that age demographic that's in good taste to target interests
seated experience on the Meta Quest 3/3S
360 standing experience on all openxr hmds
user/dev level editor for additional creative expression and content headroom
moderate learning curve
start outside of the box (about 6-9 segments long)
slash is moving like normal but is parented to an offset pose that keeps their head centered
so you can easily get a feel for how the slash moves
(sort of like writhing around in zero g)
*dreamlike*
wake up in box
stylized visuals
fun to play daily for a couple weeks or so
playable with a half engaging vid or conversation in the background
make depth easier to judge
pseudo light source is coming from your face (maybe at a diagonal *higher up* angler fish)
benchmark
need to be able to play without moving/turning the box
start music on egg eat
to keep prior tutorial phase focused and a strong indication that auto move has kicked in
curved hanger
my tempo (zen mode *after initial release*)
on l_con tap (a) btn to step, and repeatedly to set tempo
once a tempo has been set you can stop tapping and you'll coast at that tempo
if you tap again it resets the tempo latch, so if you just tapped once it's an easy way to pause
and if you keep tapping you can control your pace and find a new tempo
long press (a) or tap (b) btn
to switch into coasting on tempo, in order to maintain the most control in ramping up and down speed with tapping without the tempo kicking in prematurely
this makes it easier to play alongside a video, as your attention span can drift in and out
and you can take tougher parts slower
core mechanics
stretch slash
revolver
flick reload
bug(s)
slash can accidentally cover the menu
